Followings are 3 stories of remount cgroup, 1. remount with devices. # mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -ocpuacct,release_agent=xxx # echo > /cgroups/release_agent #clear release agent by hand # mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -oremount,cpuacct # cat /cgroups/release_agent => release_agent is "" 2. remount without devices, mount command will read /proc/mounts and copies option. # mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -ocpuacct,release_agent=xxx # echo > /cgroups/release_agent #clear release agent by hand # mount /cgroups -oremount,cpuacct #don't specify device # cat /cgroups/release_agent => xxx Hmm, release_agent is copied from /proc/mounts and release_agent revives. 3. remount without devices, mount command will read /proc/mounts # mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -ocpuacct,release_agent=xxx # mount /cgroups -oremount,cpuacct,release_agent=xxx => error "release_agent=" will be found twice and this returns -INVAL maybe case "2" is not ideal, I think. (but it may not be bug.) My point is following. 1. Documentation/cgroups/cgroup.txt says #mount -oremount,cpuset,ns /dev/cgroup But this should be #mount -tcgroup none /dev/cgroup -oremount,cpuset,ns 2. /proc/mounts information of release_agent should be updated.... when it's overwritten directly. 3. If "2" is impossible, changing release_agent at remount should not be allowed. How do you think ?
